Apple's iPhone became the top-selling smartphone in China for the first time in 2023, despite facing fierce competition from local brands. The smartphone's shipments in China dropped by 2.1% in the final quarter of 2023, as Huawei grew its market share. Data from research firms IDC and Counterpoint Research showed that Apple achieved a record high market share of 17.3% in 2023, even as the overall market contracted. The sales decline was attributed to intensifying competition from local rivals, particularly Huawei. Apple's success in China was partly due to discounting, which helped it capture the top position among mobile vendors in the country for the first time ever.
